Kissing: What It Reveals About Intimacy With Your Wife
Your lips are your most exposed erogenous zone.
By Lesli Doares
Kissing, or more to the point, not kissing is often an indicator of the level of intimacy with your wife. And I’m not talking about pecks on the cheek or mouth but full-on, deep, intimate kissing. The kind you probably did when you first got together.
Even if you’re having regular sex, if this kind of kissing is missing, it may mean that you aren’t as connected as a couple as you could be.
In the movie Pretty Woman, Julia Roberts’ hooker character won’t kiss the men who hire her on the mouth. She sees it as being too intimate. And she’s not alone. Many people don’t kiss during sex because it’s so intimate.
Do you feel that way? Does your wife?
Your lips are your most exposed erogenous zone. They are packed with sensitive nerve endings and even the slightest touch can create a cascade of good feeling. This is an association that goes back to the time you were a baby. Babies associate positive feelings on their mouths to receiving food and love. And that connection is lifelong.
Today, being kissed sets off a cascade of impulses that connect your brain to your tongue, lips, skin, and your other facial muscles.
